4WD Low not activating?

I have a 2001 Explorer Sport with 31,000 miles. When activating 4wd low it does not kick in. There is no click when I turn the ****. Also the light on the dashboard does not come on for 4wd low but all works for 4wd high. Also I am stopped when I engage the 4wd high or low. Please help. Thank you in advance.

And step on the brake pedal.

The brake pedal switch along with neutral safety
are part of the circuit that says its okay to shift!
